Crossford Primary School Vision Statement

Our aim at Crossford Primary School is “Rise to the challenge; supporting each other”.

Crossford Primary School values are:

• Ambition: we will strive to always achieve our best
• Commitment: We try our hardest on our journey to achieve our goals and targets
• Respect: We will value others and care for ourselves at all times
• Responsibility: We are responsible for everything we say and everything we do

Crossford Primary School is situated in the village of Crossford, which is 3 miles west of Dunfermline. The associate secondary school is Queen Anne High School. Crossford School was built in 1973. It is semi-open plan with ten teaching areas. Six of these are situated around a central circular hall and provide accommodation for the older children plus a Library and a General Purpose Room. The four remaining areas are for the younger children and have a separate entrance and cloakroom area. There is also an accessible ramp into the building at this entrance. The Nursery is self-contained in separate accommodation comprising a Medway building with completely enclosed garden and play areas. In addition there is a single annexe which is presently used as a Science, Technology and Music room. The grounds are large with a grassed football patch, hard surface netball and basketball court and trim trail. With the support of the Parent Council we have developed the playground areas and have developed a new quiet garden at the front of the school. We also have developed an outdoor classroom with support from the Parent Council.
